– Before using the KIPPflexX 5-axis clamping system, read all of the following information in these instructions carefully.
– The basis for operating the clamping system is knowledge of the general safety instructions and safety regulations.
– The accident prevention regulations (APR) for the respective location must also be observed.
– Observe the generally applicable technical rules when handling, cleaning and using the vice and its accessories.
– The vice may only be used with original spare parts and accessories.
– All the information must be observed by all persons who work with the KIPPflexX 5-axis clamping system.
– The clamping system is constructed according to the latest technology including all relevant safety regulations.
– The clamping system is to be used exclusively for holding workpieces that are machined on milling machines.
– This KIPPflexX 5-axis clamping system may only be used if all safety devices of the machine are absolutely functional.
– The KIPPflexX 5-axis clamping system can cause serious material damage if it is operated or mounted incorrectly.
HEINRICH KIPP WERK GmbH & Co. KG will not in any circumstances be responsible for any type of damage caused by the
operator.
– Exchange any components that are not in a perfect condition.
– If any additions or conversions are made to the 5-axis clamping system, all liabilities and quality feature guarantees expire.

– Do not exceed the permissible tractive force of 60 kN (at 140 Nm).
– The maximum clamping travel of 1mm per jaw must not be exceeded at the downthrust clamping.
– Check that everything is correctly and securely mounted before any milling work.
– Check that all the screw connections are completely tightened to the correct torque.
– The clamped workpiece may only have a maximum parallel displacement of 0.5mm along the entire clamping width.
– K0946 pin with Ø 6 mm cup point; universal pin for positive clamping without pre-embossing
(e.g. machining blanks).
– The spindle nut may not be moved beyond the marking (V-notch) on the shaft. This ensures that a sucient number of
threads is always used.
– The union nut must contact the face of the extension shaft before assembly.
- To prevent damage to the thread, the distance between the union nut and the extension / adapter shaft when mounted
must not exceed 10 mm.

3. DESCRIPTION
The KIPPflexX 5-axis clamping system is characterised by high stability, flexibility and user-friendliness.
This 5-axis clamping system can be used as a positive-down force vice or as a normal vice for holding e.g. blanks.
The user can decide if positive-down force is desired or not when operating the clamping unit.
- If both jaw units are locked, positive-down force is eected.
- If one jaw unit remains unlocked, this jaw can be moved and clamps using the normal vice principle.
(see 3.2 Technical explanation of the dierence between positive-down force clamping and normal clamping)
When using the positive-down function, the workpiece is pulled down onto the rest with a repeat accuracy of ±0.01mm.
A workpiece clamping height of 155/180mm enables very good accessibility with short tools when machining.
The clamping width is infinitely adjustable using a hand crank, thus reducing set-up times.
Clamping is done using a torque wrench with max. 140 Nm, which results in an enormous clamping force of 60kN directly in the
spindle under the workpiece.
In addition, the closed geometries and the associated imperviousness to dirt reduce maintenance and service time to a minimum.
